| History |
A
land of vast distances and rich natural
resources, Canada became a self-governing
dominion in 1867 while retaining ties to the
British crown. Economically and technologically
the nation has developed in parallel with the
US, its neighbor to the south across an
unfortified border. Its paramount political
problem continues to be the relationship of the
province of Quebec, with its French-speaking
residents and unique culture, to the remainder
of the country. |
